ONSITE 2025 – Site-Specific Residency & Festival in Berlin

We are pleased to share the Open Call for the fourth edition of ONSITE – site-specific artistic residency and festival in Berlin, curated by Po:era. From October to November 2025, we invite 15 international artists and practitioners working across disciplines – visual arts, performance, sound, and film – to engage with the unique ecologies of three cultural venues in Berlin: Museum Kesselhaus Herzberge, Kino Central, Theater Acker Stadt Palast. This year’s thematic focus is speculative storytelling as artistic method and spatial practice.

The residency includes:
• Kick-off workshops (7–9 October)
• Research & development at one of the sites (13–31 October)
• Public presentations during the ONSITE Festival (6–9 November)

Application deadline: 31 August 2025
